Two distinct audience neighborhoods define Christian Pulisic's top 10: a U.S. soccer cluster and a Ted Lasso fictional universe cluster — with a beauty retailer sitting at the edge of both.
The shape is two-peak. The first peak is the U.S. soccer ecosystem. U.S. Soccer MNT leads the entire set at 0.93, followed closely by Alex Morgan (0.91), U.S. Soccer WNT (0.90), Clint Dempsey (0.89), Tim Howard (0.88), Taylor Twellman (0.88), and Carli Lloyd (0.86) — five fellow Athletes and two Sports Teams forming a tight, coherent bloc. The second peak is the Ted Lasso universe: AFC Richmond, a Fictional Characters entity, scores 0.92, and Ted Lasso, a TV Show, scores 0.91 — both sitting between the top USMNT score and Alex Morgan, which means the fictional soccer world pulls nearly as hard as the real one. The bridge between these two clusters is the audience itself: people who follow U.S. soccer apparently overlap heavily with fans of the Apple TV+ show. The lone outlier is ULTA Beauty at 0.85 — a Beauty and Cosmetics retailer with no obvious thematic connection to either cluster, yet whose audience shape aligns closely enough to land in the top 10.
The two-peak structure reveals an audience that is simultaneously rooted in the real U.S. soccer world and drawn to its most prominent fictional counterpart, with enough breadth to pull in at least one non-sports entity at the edge.
